Boy name may come from the Old Norse "Amundi", where "a" means "very" and "mundi" is a form of "mundr" which means "protector / guards", but it can also be a variant of Agmund consisting of name the parts ag and mund, where ag is a Norse word meaning "respect / fear" or "spike", while Edmund is derived from the Norse word "mundr" which means "protector / protecting."
